On some printer software, you can choose what type of paper you are using, plain, glossy, transparency, card stock, and some others. There are other settings for quality, so what does this setting do? What would the printer do differently for the different types of paper? -- |||||||||||||||| ...

Has anyone used this? I'm thinking of making some brochures, this is Canon MP 101 Matt 170gsm photo paper - which sounds about right, and the price is reasonable. But does it have anything stamped on the back (canon logo for instance) and can you print on the back? TIA (Please no recommendations...

I have a Canon S530D that has me quite perplexed. It won't print black, no-where, no-how, on my Windows XP machine. I've spent quite a bit of time Googling the problem and it would seem that it has a bad printhead or possibly the waste tank is full, although I'm not getting an error that would...

The printer cartridge light is blinking on my HP 882C. Right before this happened the printer drew in several pages at once, but managed to spit them all out without my intervention. No other problems. I replaced the black cartridge, even though the little window showed it completely full (all...

Dear All, please advise on a printer that is not expensive and can print on CDs and also be easily refilled when ink runs out. Printing quality is not so very important - ie - even 600dpi should be ok. thnx!

Every once in a while, my Laserjet 1012 stops printing the requested pages and instead prints: Unsupported Personality: PCL I have to restart the printer before it restarts printing. What the hell is that? GP

I've been looking at the Cannon image Class MF printer. http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/controller?act=ModelDetailAct&fcategoryid=125&modelid=10561 It has most everything I want, with one exception: I really want full PC Fax functionality, including holding incoming faxes in memory until I print...

I'm thinking of brands such as HP, Canon, and Epson and wondering which is better at printing colour photos. I know all printers have their strengths and weaknesses, does one brand of printer stand out amonst the rest? Some years back Epson was the best printer for printing photos and had a very...

Hi, Can someone please tell me what might be wrong with my printer? I have a HP LaserJet 1200 and I am now getting a smudge line one inch in from the left hand side on about 1 in 7 sheets. It goes all the way down the page and in fact most pages now are printed with black marks in that area of the...

I have a HP 920c printer. I noticed that when I try to print using just the black ink cartridge only, that it still uses the color cartridge. Simply taking the color cartridge out doesn't seem to work. I've tried changing the "printing preferences" to use the black ink only but nothing works. I...

http://pixma.cjb.net/ I just ran across this link on the Nifty-Stuff forum ( http://www.nifty-stuff.com/forum/ ) describing a simple modification of the US printers to print CD's directly. There have been lots of posts about this issue and I thought it would be of interest to anyone who wanted...
